Hey, I Know You...
Haley Peters played on the same AAU team, the Philly Belles with Lexie Gerson of Virginia. Peters and Gerson also played together on the same high school team at the Peddie School in N.J. They both scored their 1,000th point during the same quarter of the same game during Gerson’s senior year (Peters junior year).
Elizabeth Williams played AAU on the Boo Williams squad along with Virginia’s Simone Egwu, Ataira Franklin and Jazmin Pitts. She knows the whole team pretty well because she played against them too. Williams father, Dr. Alex, did his fellowship for gastroenterology at Virginia.

With Duke’s victory at UNC on Feb. 3, Duke registered its 16th consecutive 20-win season and the 18th out of the last 19 years. Head Coach Joanne P. McCallie owns 17 different 20-win seasons over her 21-year coaching career and 10 straight.
Looking at the national scene, Tennessee owns a 36-year streak of reaching 20 wins, while Connecticut is second (20) and Duke’s 16 straight years is third.
The ACC record for most consecutive 20-win seasons is 15 by Duke.

Wells Notches Career-Best Game...
Junior Chloe Wells turned in a career-best performance at 11th-ranked North Carolina on Feb. 3 as she drained 6-of-7 three-pointers and finished with 18 points.
Her 18 points and six three-pointers made were both career highs. Wells became the 12th player in Duke history to hit six or more three-pointers in a single game. She missed a school-record three-pointers made by one, which is seven held by Jessica Foley and Nicole Erickson.
